Modderfontein Vacations from $364

This is a very small and quiet hotel with a nice breakfast.

Ellipse has a fantastic location right next to Mall of Africa, and the aparthotel itself was very nice, but poor internal communication significantly hurt the experience. Check-in was confusing since I received no prior instructions, and despite arriving after the 3:00 PM check-in time, I had to wait in the hallway while housekeeping finished up. Later, I was granted an extra hour for late checkout (12:00 PM) because I was unwell, but management failed to notify staff. Housekeeping knocked at 11:00 AM and again at 11:30 AM, completely disrupting my rest. On top of that, the 6-digit access code repeatedly malfunctioned when trying to exit the building and parking areas. It’s a great property, but management urgently needs a centralized communication system.

Lovely area with beautiful views across the lake. Room very clean and well presented. Staff very helpful. This hotel offers a very personal experience. Superb breakfast and restaurant offering good selection of food. Very clean pool area with plenty of space and sunbeds.

The staff are great
